Walco Industries Cleaning Methods:

Our company will determine which cleaning method to use based on the material build up

Steam

High or Ultra High Pressure Water

Fogger wash systems using high pressure hot water and automated 3D tooling

Sanitation Process

Upon completion of the wash, our certified confined space entry team may enter if required, to remove any residues that were left behind. Once the residues are removed, our team meticulously cleans all the critical control points.

If requested by our customer we will then wash the tank with a detergent and sanitize it. Once the vessel has been air dried the surfaces may be microbial swab tested. A final inspection is completed and the vessel handed back to the customer.

Aditional Cleaning Practice:

If residues are left behind after a fogger wash, we remove them using hand tools, or High Pressure Water Jets up to 40,000 PSI

Heel Removal

Depending on the density, impurity content, melting point, polymerization and viscosity the heel may be transferred into another vessel for market or simply removed and transported to a designated facility

​

Clean and Dry Certified

Once the vessel is thoroughly cleaned and inspected it is then dried with a high BTU indirect heater to achieve certified Clean and Dry Specifications. Care is taken to not damage the potentially sensitive linings. Walco works in conjunction with the customer to verify tank coatings specifications and researches proper qualility control to protect the customers assets
